Studio 316a

Studio 316a Thursday night drawing group’s first-ever model

Another Thursday night pose

A new Thursday night life-drawing group started this week at the studio of Matthew Gonzalez. The Studio 316a Drawing Group can be found online at www.meetup.com/studio-316a-rabbit-road-drawing-group.

Even though this was the first official meeting of the Studio 361a Thursday night drawing group, Matthew has a long history of starting and hosting successful drawing groups in Santa Fe.

Studio 316a is located at 316a Rabbit Road. I plan to add Studio 316a to my regular weekly drawing-group schedule, especially since it’s just seven tenths of a mile from home. No turns, no traffic, no stop signs or traffic lights. Just an occasional rabbit between here and there.

Three Poses

Three of about 20 poses from a recent life drawing group. This model makes every pose look classic. Even upside-down.

Last week’s model looked a lot like me. 

Two arms, two legs, white hair . . .  

that’s about it.
